It was fortunate that there was a lot of worry about typhoons due to the forecast that typhoon Francisco would penetrate the Korean peninsula. It was extinguished shortly after landing in Busan last night. In the west, including Seoul, the heat wave will continue as the daytime temperatures rise to around 33 degrees.

Typhoon Francisco, who landed in Busan last night, was weakened by tropical low pressure around 9 o'clock earlier than expected.

This is because the forces weakened as they passed through Kyushu, Japan, and the structure of the typhoon was broken, and when they landed in Busan, the forces weakened by friction with the ground.

However, up to 150mm of rain has so far fallen in Gangwon and Yeongnam provinces due to the rain clouds brought by typhoons.

Heavy rain warnings and warnings are still issued in the mountains and on the east coast of Gangwon-do.

After the typhoon has weakened, the tropical low pressure part is expected to pass offshore Sokcho this morning after passing through the inland of Gangwon.

The heatwave continues today, including Seoul.

The weather is cooler than yesterday, but the weather forecast for the time being will lead to heat waves that will rise to around 33 degrees.

Watch for Typhoon No. 9 Rekima on the north.

Typhoon Rekima, who is heading northeast of Taiwan's southeastern coast, is likely to make his way back to the West Sea after a brief landing in southern Shanghai this weekend.

Although the course is still in flux, the Meteorological Agency said, if the typhoon winds northward, the Korean Peninsula may be affected directly or indirectly.
